I migrated my systems from ubuntu to centos and I could not be more happy. off course I have been force to learn the new places where things are "the redhat way" but not problem since the usual tools continue to exist in both platforms. I have decided to run Centos in all my machines thus far, I do have some applications that only run in Windows, in those cases I keep a Virtualbox instance to use those particular applications when needed otherwise I try keeping everything in Centos as native. Do not get me wrong, centos is an "IT" operating system but it could equally be a tool of choice for "non-IT" individuals as long as they are willing to search, read, and ask questions when all else fails. Best of luck and Centos rocks!<br><br>>>> Parshwa Murdia <b330bkn@gmail.com> 01/19/11 10:32 AM >>><br>On Wed, Jan 19, 2011 at 4:25 PM, Christopher R Webber<br><christopher.webber@ucr.edu> wrote:<br><br>> I find that in places where I donšt have latest and greatest hardware,<br>> CEntOS makes a much better Desktop OS than Ubuntu.

I like (as what I have<br>found reading and comments I got) Cent OS is secured, stable and an<br>excellent OS, but if you talk of easiness, I guess Ubuntu is above in<br>ranking, where I only talk of ease of use and again its totally the<br>wish of the individual one who is going with what distro. But as for a<br>person, who is really not from IT or uses computers more frequently<br>but want to use one Linux distro, I can say that anyone be it, Cent OS<br>or Ubuntu or even Fedora, at least it is Linux!!<br><br>-- <br>Regards,<br>Parshwa Murdia<br><br>Making the simple complicated is commonplace, making the complicated<br>simple, awesomely simple, that's innovation.. -C Mingus<br>_______________________________________________<br>CentOS mailing list<br>CentOS@centos.org<br>http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos<br></body></html>
